Linguistic representation of ethnicities in Assassin's Creed: Black Flag
2018
Tässä tutkimuksessa analysoidaan Assassin’s Creed: Black Flagia, suosittua historiallista seikkailuvideopelia (Ubisoft, 2013). Peli kertoo monisyisen tarinan, joka antaa pelaajille mahdollisuuden olla vuorovaikutuksessa hyvin kirjoitettujen, kolmiuloitteisten hahmojen kanssa. Pelihahmot edustavat lukuisia eri etnisiä ryhmiä ja heidät on sijoitettu huolellisesti rakennettuun historialliseen kontekstiin. Pelin monipuolinen ja monikielinen tapahtumapaikka on myös tärkeässä asemassa ja kieli on siinä erittäin tärkeä immersion, maailmanrakennuksen ja tarinankerronnan väline. Pelidiskursia analysoitiin sosiolingvistikan, proseduraalisen retoriikan, narratologian ja aiemman historiallisia seikkail…
Sustaining Attention for a Prolonged Duration Affects Dynamic Organizations of Frequency-Specific Functional Connectivity
2020
Sustained attention encompasses a cascade of fundamental functions. The human ability to implement a sustained attention task is supported by brain networks that dynamically formed and dissolved through oscillatory synchronization. The decrement of vigilance induced by prolonged task engagement affects sustained attention. However, little is known about which stage or combinations are affected by vigilance decrement. Here, we applied an analysis framework composed of weighted phase lag index (wPLI) and tensor component analysis (TCA) to an EEG dataset collected during 80 min sustained attention task to examine the electrophysiological basis of such effect. We aimed to characterize the phase…
Influenza delle infrastrutture ecologiche poste ai margini del vigneto su Empoasca vitis (Goethe) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae) e il suo parassitoide Ana…
2014
È ormai opinione diffusa che la diversità vegetale all’interno degli agrosistemi favorisca il mantenimento dell’entomofauna utile ai fini di un contenimento naturale di fitofagi. In quest’ambito, il presente lavoro ha riguardato uno studio, sulle popolazioni di Empoasca vitis e del suo parassitoide Anagrus atomus in un’azienda viticola sita nel comprensorio di Salemi (TP) (446 m s.l.m.) a conduzione biologica prendendo in considerazione due appezzamenti, uno con ai margini siepi di rovo, rosa canina e rosmarino e l’altro in assenza di siepi. Nel periodo vegeto-produttivo della vite (marzo-ottobre 2012), si è valutata l’influenza della specie vegetale e della variazione della distanza delle …

Nonlinearities in plant RNA virus fitness
2012
Una de las mayores amenazas tanto para la salud humana y animal, como para la agronomía es la emergencia de nuevas enfermedades infecciosas, la mayoría de las cuales están causadas por los virus de RNA. La emergencia viral es un problema complejo que consista en la adquisición de la variación genética, por mutación o recombinación, dentro de la población viral en el huésped reservorio la cual podría facilitar la capacidad de infectar de manera eficiente nuevos huéspedes. Los virus de RNA presentan a una evolucionabilidad extraordinaria por sus grandes tamaños poblacionales, cortos tiempos de generación y altas tasas de mutación y recombinación. Comprender los mecanismos evolutivos que podrí…
Internalization of novel non-viral vector TAT-streptavidin into human cells

Nuclear localization but not PML protein is required for incorporation of the papillomavirus minor capsid protein L2 into virus-like particles.
2004
ABSTRACT Recent reports suggest that nuclear domain(s) 10 (ND10) is the site of papillomavirus morphogenesis. The viral genome replicates in or close to ND10. In addition, the minor capsid protein, L2, accumulates in these subnuclear structures and recruits the major capsid protein, L1. We have now used cell lines deficient for promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein, the main structural component of ND10, to study the role of this nuclear protein for L2 incorporation into virus-like particles (VLPs). L2 expressed in PML protein knockout (PML −/− ) cells accumulated in nuclear dots, which resemble L2 aggregates forming at ND10 in PML protein-containing cells. These L2 assemblies also attracted…
Molecular Characterization of a Variant of Bacillus anthracis-Specific Phage AP50 with Improved Bacteriolytic Activity▿ †
2008
ABSTRACT The genome sequence of a Bacillus anthracis -specific clear plaque mutant phage, AP50c, contains 31 open reading frames spanning 14,398 bp, has two mutations compared to wild-type AP50t, and has a colinear genome architecture highly similar to that of gram-positive Tectiviridae phages. Spontaneous AP50c-resistant B. anthracis mutants exhibit a mucoid colony phenotype.
The Influence of the Lotus Flower Theme on the Perception Perception of Contemporary Urban Architecture
2021
We live in the visual culture times, when images continuously and daily are transferring some information. A visual message is also an indispensable element of architecture, in the semantic layer as an aesthetic value, sometimes fulfilling a narrative function by means of a symbol, which is an international visual code. Most of the symbols, hidden in painting, sculpture, or architecture, are elements of nature. The article discusses examples of architecture whose form is based on a lotus flower. Unification of urban landscapes leads to a decrease in the value of aesthetic impressions; therefore, the unique architecture builds the unique identity of the place.
Hungarian private linguistic landscape in South-West Slovakia
2014
In the field of Linguistic Landscape research little attention has been paid to the situations where a minoritized group gives the regional majority, such as South-‐West Slovakia where Hungarians form the majority. A clear majority of public signs, also in the region with a Hungarian majority, are only in Slovak, especially in the ‘official’, public sphere. In rural communities, signs posted by private citizens can be relatively frequent, too. In the truly non-‐ commercial private sphere, minorities have autonomy in public language choice. I present the local practices and interpretations of the private linguistic landscape in two ‘Hungarian’ villages in South-‐West Slovakia in the light…
